(CAPITOL NEWS SERVICE) – Florida lawmakers hope raising the legal smoking age to 21 will prevent teens from picking up the habit.
A new proposal in the state legislature would raise the age to 21. If the legislation passes, Florida would become the sixth state to raise the legal age for tobacco to 21. In Florida, a person can legally purchase and consume tobacco products at 18.
